Kenza 450

The Kenza 450 TX is an automated biochemistry analyzer from BIOLABO, designed to perform a wide range of biochemical tests. With its high processing capacity, it can be considered by laboratories handling a significant volume of samples. The analyzer can process up to 420 tests per hour, increasing to 480 tests per hour when equipped with the ISE module.

Performance and Features of the Kenza 450 TX

The Kenza 450 TX features a Random Access system and a benchtop design, allowing continuous sample loading and STAT testing. One practical feature is that the instrument can start operating without a lengthy start-up or shutdown procedure. The first result can also be available in less than three minutes.

The analyzer features 120 independent refrigerated reagent positions and 98 positions for samples, calibrators, and controls. Fiber-optic technology and an automatic washing system also help streamline testing procedures.

Quality Control and Test Workflow Management

In biochemical testing, quality control is an important part of the laboratory process. The Kenza 450 TX supports calibrator and control management, along with tools such as Levey–Jennings charts and Westgard rules. Bidirectional LIS connectivity also enables the analyzer to communicate with the laboratory’s information infrastructure.

Other notable features include low water consumption and a design suitable for laboratory environments. According to the manufacturer, water consumption is less than 3 liters per hour at maximum operation.

Choosing the Right Analyzer for Your Laboratory

An automated biochemistry analyzer should be selected based on sample volume, required test types, workload capacity, and the laboratory’s infrastructure. Reviewing the Kenza 450 TX technical specifications before making a decision can help laboratories choose an instrument that meets their actual needs.
